A sport race is a competition of speed, against an objective criterion, usually a clock or to a specific point. The competitors in a race try to complete a given task in the shortest amount of time. Typically this involves traversing some distance, but it can be any other task involving speed to reach a specific goal.

A race may be run continuously from start to finish or may be made of several segments called heats, stages or legs. A heat is usually run over the same course at different times. A stage is a shorter section of a much longer course or a time trial.

Early records of races are evident on pottery from ancient Greece, which depicted running men vying for first place. A chariot race is described in Homer's Iliad.

Whats the difference between motorcycle racing suit and jacket?
Q. Whats the difference between a racing suit and a jacket? Which one is more safer in an event of a crash? What EC rating? I mean CE approved
Asked by always.askin - Sat Jan 12 15:20:18 2008 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments

A. The suite is head to toe gear. Usually heavy and thick padded. Not comfortable for just street riding. Specifically designed for high speed crashes on the track. The jacket is just that, a jacket. They make leather and mesh but the mesh will burn away quick if you're sliding down the pavement. Leather with back, elbow, and shoulder pads is best.

What is the best way to store a racing road bike?
Q. I just bought my first road racer. After years of riding mountain bikes and just hanging them upside down (by the wheels) from the ceiling (with no apparent bad effect), I was wondering if there is any reason I shouldn't do this with my racing bike. It has Mavic open pro rims, a steel frame, and the whole thing weighs about 18lbs. Will I do any damage to the bike by storing it in the same manner as my mountain bikes?

A. As long as you keep the bike dry it will be fine. You might want to lube the chain and cables before you store it. It won't hurt the bike to be hung up.. its how they are stored at bike shops. In fact is actually the preferred method because as your tire looses air (and it will) the rim won't be sitting on the tire.
